what is more important is choosing a college, like the college of arts and sciences, college of engineering, selecting when that feels like it has a number of majors you would be interested in, because once you are enrolled it is not as difficult to move within your own college. but there are exceptions. i think across u.c. you're interested in computer science or engineering, those are going to be more competitive. that will push you into an even more competitive place than just for general admission. and it is important to see campus by campus if there are programs that are popular. some of the performing arts, film programs at ucla could be more competitive. so, the u.c.'s are pretty transparent, you can go on their website to see which majors are impacted. that's typically the language they use, it is more competitive, more interested students than spots available. kristen: some of the top u.c.'s are down to 10% admissions, so many great children will be left behind. given that, how do you form a college list. a list of schools to apply to? lauren: the advice i give is to think about ar

well, that, too, is something i think we apply to the college classroom, because right now, colleges, if you read a i mean, let's just take the most obvious example. huck finn, everybody is talking about this ad nauseum and people choose to become offended at the content of in reading it in the 21st century context. if you try and travel to the 19th century and, look at it again, you're going to have very different ideas. but it takes a certain sensitivity tack on the part of the teacher and a certain willingness on the part of the students to be humble and that they do not they're not they're the classroom to sit on judgment on everybody in the lesson thousand years now is huck finn book that you would teach at bennington? no, i have not taught up there. i don't, i don't specialize in american literature. i'm just i'm just saying that because it's something that's always in the news. but for i do teach david hume and david hume is an indispensable philosopher for his period. you have to read david hume and then, of course, he wrote an essay in which he said that, you know, he thought

colleges and the secondary educations of the college bound. since these institutions promoted the notion that particular classical texts were the key to moral improvement. the early colleges insisted on prescribed curricula. the foundation or role of the classical languages in higher education had always been controversial. many americans associated this sort of with the aristocratic ethos europe and hungered for a curriculum more in keeping with american pragmatism, partly as a response to such critiques, the american colleges slowly altered their curricula over granting more pedagogical attention to other subjects. the resistance to the classical curriculum came to a head in the decades following the civil war. by this time, a generation of academic took their pedagogical bearings from the german research universities. the spirit of professionalization had first reared its head at these institutions, which encouraged rigorous training in particular disciplines and led the attainment of a ph.d. in the late 19th century. numerous academic lead

we had a small program at our college. a medium-sized community college in the pacific northwest. we stumbled on an opportunity that we cannot resist. that was all about -- of course. and we were not ready to be beat out by california and the whole arena of cyber security education. we took it upon ourselves to get organized so we could become a regional center in cyber security, regionally on the west coast. nobody had heard of washington state but they certainly knew california. we tried to put ourselves in that arena. one of the things we felt proudest of is the acknowledgment of the national science foundation to become a national center of excellence in cybersecurity education and training. and we have been a resource to a number of institutions. it must've been over 300 institutions that had dissipated and activities -- obtaining certifications. fashion curriculum development so that we can prepare higher education to better respond to workforce needs, particularly in cyberspace. that model is a national model that can be replicated regionally. -- that is a national model th

or particular college and your group has a unique way to measure that value. tell us about it. >> sure. so we've developed a college rating system of our own that we call the economic mobility index. and what it does is it takes a look under the hood at how well colleges are doing at helping their students move up the income ladder. so where a lot of other college rankings focus on prestige, we're putting return on investment at the center of how we think about value and schools that do well on the economic mobility index are keeping their tuition costs low. they're creating pathway to college for students that have high financial need, and they're really setting students up for success to get a fast return on their investment. after they graduate. >> so let's take a look at a map that you have here that reflects the economic mobility index and how bay area universities look. let's talk about san francisco state. this is a good one, right, in terms of mobility, upward mobility. >> absolutely. so across the board, california public colleges and universities dom
